Datblygu are one of those bands who have always been on my radar thanks to Peel, and from bands they influenced like Gorky’s and Super Furry Animals but I found myself properly digging into their back catalogue recently and it’s intriguing and wonderful. I’ve no idea what the lyrics are but that doesn’t really bother me – I get the general gist of it. The music is really minimal – think Young Marble Giants and The Fall, and the obvious latter day comparison is the backing tracks SpaceBarBloke from Sleaford Mods writes for his band but there is also that certain something that (without wishing to patronise) I hear in a lot of homegrown Welsh music that’s just a tad more otherworldly and Psychedelic but very subtle. There is lots of Datblygu stuff on YouTube and on Spotify etc, but if you get grabbed by it and you want to support Datblygu you can get most of their back catalogue CDs and some Vinyl at a very reasonable price from Anskt Music c/o Ankst.net
